I always wonder how it looks like if you have a chrome door handle on it?

Yup…and that is a TRD exhaust. But how did you miss the backup camera? Hint - next to the Scion logo on the hatch handle.

Nice... Just noticed the camera, again very clean... Would you mind sharing the specs on your tires and wheels combination? Size? Wheel offset? Wheel brand? I like how the wheels and tires fill the fender gap with the TRD springs.....

Lexus F-Sport (a division of TRD by the way) 19X9 Full-Face Forged Alloy Wheels P/N: PTR45-30103 (offset +40-mm)

Lexus F-Sport Wheel Installation Kit P/N: PTR27-30010 (4 spline nuts and a McGard locking nut for each wheel with the two tools)

Michelin Pilot Sport PS3 in 255/35ZR19

TPMS and installation kit P/N: 42607-33011 and P/N: 04423-0E010

Oh yeah, I had to buy TRD center caps for the 2011 Scion tC to make custom center caps for these wheels. The Lexus F-Sport center cap will not go over the front axle bolt.

I'm very late on this but this thread needs to be bumped anyway.

2tC, your car's stance is amazing and you did an awesome job snapping those pics to show it off.

in a word...F-Sport.







As you can see, the fronts are done...the rears are next.

Then I've got to make camber adjustments possible...

You know, I was really dismissive of this color when I went to buy my Scion tC, so ended up with Magnetic Gray Metallic, but I have to admit now, Sizzling Crimson is growing on me, and if I had to do it all over again, it'd be a definite toss-up. Great work here, people.

I see that you didn’t de-vinyl your A-Pillars either.
Whose exhaust is that?
Don’t put on wheel spacers…that will screw up your suspension geometry.

- Yeah, I sorta tossed around the idea of removing the vinyl...but I honestly think that every color this car comes in looks better WITH it...especially with tinted windows.
- That's the Tsudo S2 cat-back
- I figured spacers would throw something off. I just know the stance will look fantastic with them on.
